You will contact your supervisor approximately monthly (every 2 months for part-time students) over the course of your study. Supervisors are experienced in managing the research process and are chosen to complement your area of interest. You will discuss your research with a panel annually. The panel is chaired by an experienced researcher from the department, and includes your supervisor and another member of staff. It provides an important opportunity to present progress on your research and to have a wider discussion about your work.
Your supervisor will read and comment on drafts of your thesis before it is finally submitted. An external and an internal examiner (who will not be your supervisor) will then examine it, and will meet with you for a viva. They will judge whether your thesis demonstrates:
MPhil students must show original work of merit that is worthy of publication. The requirement for PhDs is that the work is an original contribution to knowledge that is worthy of publication.
In addition to the academic knowledge gained through their course, postgraduates from Birmingham’s Institute of Local Government Studies develop transferable skills that are useful in many occupations. These include familiarity with research methods; the ability to manage large and diverse quantities of information; the ability to organise information in a logical and coherent manner; judging and evaluating complex information; and making reasoned arguments, both orally and in written work.
Institute of Local Government Studies graduates are attracted to careers in both public and private sectors.

The mission of the Government Department Ph.D. program is to provide students with the analytical skills and substantive knowledge needed to both generate and evaluate research in political science, preparing them for careers at the highest levels of scholarship and teaching. A Georgetown Ph.D. in Government signifies theoretical, methodological, and substantive expertise in various topics of political significance, as well as the research and communication skills necessary for productive scholarship.
The degree indicates that the recipient has acquired extensive knowledge in at least two fields, both typically drawn from the four major subfields of political science, but which may also include related fields such as history, security studies, or public policy. A Georgetown Ph.D. in Government is granted only to students who have demonstrated the ability to synthesize large quantities of information and rigorously evaluate the merits of competing theoretical and empirical arguments. The degree indicates that its holder has obtained the analytical and methodological skills to design and conduct original research of the highest quality. It further certifies that its holder has the written and oral communication skills necessary to engage with debates at the leading edge of the field. Individuals holding a Georgetown Ph.D. in Government are also equipped with the knowledge and skills to teach political science at the university level in both survey courses and specialized seminars.
Doctoral-level seminars taken during coursework are designed to familiarize students with the scholarly literature in at least two fields of study. Students gain a broad understanding of the development and major topics of research within these fields, as well as expertise in several more specialized areas. Students learn to evaluate and engage with the major scholarly debates in their fields of study, both in classroom discussion and in written work. All students learn the methodological skills needed to carry out original research in their respective fields.
Ph.D. students are required to take comprehensive examinations in one major. The purpose of comprehensive examinations is to demonstrate a student’s broad familiarity with the literature in his or her fields of study. This prepares students both as professional members of a scholarly community and as future teachers at the university level. Our doctoral students write dissertations that consist of rigorous original research that contribute to our understanding of a topic of empirical importance and theoretical significance to the field of political science. Once a dissertation of high quality is complete, there is a dissertation defense at which the student presents the results of his or her research and is questioned about the implications of the work for the field of political science by the dissertation committee.
In addition to the formal requirements of the doctoral program, students are encouraged and expected to participate in opportunities for professional socialization and development. All four subfields of the department organize speaker series to host scholars from other universities and promote intellectual exchange. Doctoral students are also encouraged to attend our seminars on various aspects of the academic profession, including teaching, publishing, and the job market.
Students acquire teaching skills in a number of settings. Many serve as teaching assistants for the larger undergraduate courses offered by the department, while others may have the opportunity to teach their own undergraduate-level seminars. Students may also take advantage of training seminars offered by the department, as well as the certification offered through the Apprenticeship in Teaching Program run by the Center for New Designs in Teaching and Learning .
Doctoral students engage with the political science community outside of Georgetown by attending specialized seminars and presenting their research at academic conferences.
For students admitted with a Fellowship, we provide tuition and a stipend of $38,000. Typically students in their first year are assigned a service-free fellowship and will work on coursework and related research. In their second year, students normally are assigned service assistantships and and will typically serve as TA’s in GOVT courses or on other assignments. Students in their fourth year are assigned service assistantships and typically serve as an RA for a professor or some other assignment. In the fifth year, students usually also are service-free conditional on having successfully defended their dissertation prospectus and advanced to ABD status.
Our Ph.D. graduates have tenure-track jobs at many excellent institutions, including:
In addition, our Ph.D.s have been winning prestigious fellowships, including ones from Harvard, Princeton and Brookings.
Part of our placement success is due to our strong record of working closely with students, including producing jointly authored articles.

The selection process generally begins with a pre- placement talk and the firms give the students complete insights about the company profile and other necessary details about the selection. Different companies from icici bank to Infosys to Mercedes Benz and several other renowned firms have been recruiting from Christ and one of the highest packages was given by de and Shaw for about 12 lakhs.
I don't remember the fest conducted in the department when I was studying. We have a very big library where all books are available for the students. We have separate library for department and one central library inside the university campus. The amenities in the department are computer lab,smart classrooms, library and conference hall.
It is a govt institution and it is within my hometown. i felt it would be recognizable if I study in a well established university.The university conducted a separate entrance for MBA and there was a Group discussion and personal interview. Personal interview mainly focused on our interests.
The campus life is amazing at IIT Roorkee. The college hosts one cultural fest in the month of October which is named Thomso. A host of cultural events are conducted over a period of 3 days which includes singing, dancing, acting, fashion shows, Mr. And Ms. Thomso and many more. There is one DJ night and singers are called to perform on other 2 days. In 2019, Jubin Nautiyal performed on Day 1 and Vishal and Shekhar performed on Day 2. The fest could not happen in 2020 due to Covid.Apart from the cultural fest, there is a technical fest in the month of March every year. People from renowned colleges come and participate from all over India. The college has 2 lecture hall complex where most of the classes are held. Apart from that there are class rooms in each department. All the classes have projectors and are air conditioned.

Apart from this there are few technical clubs as well like finance club, robotics club etc.
I'm doing PhD in Finance from Department of Management Studies, IIT Roorkee. I chose this course as I was interested in Finance. However, the college offers Ph.D in all the departments in various fields. On an average, one faculty supervises around 4-7 scholars. The faculties are highly qualified in their fields and have good research experience. Initially, the PhD students have to do coursework which varies from 6 months to 1 year in most of the departments. During the coursework, students have to attend classes and give semester exams, mid term exams and few assignments and/or presentations. It is mandatory to get a minimum of 7cgpa in the course work to continue your PhD. If you study well, it isn't difficult to get 7cgpa. After the coursework exam, there is a coursework seminar which is mandatory. The seminar is like a research presentation given by the student in front of faculties and other fellow PhD students. The basic purpose of seminar is to check your English proficiency and decide whether some English course is required or not.Once you are through with the coursework, the actual research begins! You need to be in the research lab daily from Monday to Friday.
We did not have any internship or placement opportunities in this college. Since this is a distance learning college, I kind of this here. But they taught in such a great manner that we were ready to nail every interview in the company that we wished for.
The duration for this course is 2 years. The course curriculum mainly revolves around research work. We are given knowledge and information about everything that we require for our research work and the rest of the things we have to do ourselves at home.
Doctorate in Management Studies was three years course Which provided with a foundation in human resource management and organizational behaviour. It also helps to obtain skills and knowledge for getting good positions in wide range of organizations, how to manage in organizations and how organizations work.
Admission to this college can be done by filling online form on its website. The form is to be filled with relevant details and submit the scanned documents. You also have to submit application fee. I was made to give entrance exam for my admission. Then I was called for interview.
The faculty of the college is appointed with the focus in quality education of students. They are very well qualified and trained with a great experience. They have good command over their respective subjects. They also encourage students in every possible way and help them when they need.
Indian School of Business Management and Administration offers PhD in management studies to the students who have completed their post graduation in respective discipline. Then the students will have to give the entrance exam and based on their merit, they will be selected.
The college had many different societies like NSS, sports, dancing, ,etc., which used to organize several extracurricular activities and competitions for students to participate and join. The college used to organize several inter college extracurricular activities and competitions as well
The fee structure of my college was very cooperative and convenient. Relaxation was also provided to students of reserved category and with weak economical backgrounds in fee payments and scholarships were also provided to deserving students
We felt that the placements and job opportunities were grand for us. In a city like Indore, we were lucky to even get campus placements. Companies like Sun Pharma, CMS IT Services, Aditya Birla Ultratech, etc. came to recruit us.
The admission process didn't require me giving any entrance test or interview. It was just on the basis of my score of my Master's degree final exams. I had gotten a good enough score, thus, got into the merit list.
The admission process was simple, as there were clear-cut steps and dates. Firstly, my post graduate score was considered for the merit list. Then I was called in for a written entrance at the insitute. That was it. Once I passed, and completed the formalities, I was in.
The placement and job opportunities were really bright for us. Prestigious companies like Hitachi, Ashok Leyland, Honda, Ford, Global Analytics, TCS, Cognizant came to recruit us. We were also provided internship opportunities.

A bit expensive for a researcher like me as I belong to poor family. The expenses during research degree are so much higher here in Delhi, india and I am finding it hard to fund my phd. Though university is providing indian rupees 5000/month which is very less as my rent for a month is 6000 indian rupees alone, then expenses on education and day today activities is even more higher.
The course comprises of course work which is about undertaking a research and how to conduct research and field works. Its duration is for 6 months and after 6 months we have to prepare a synopsis and present it in front of the panel of experts of the research and then we are admitted to either phd or M. Phil.
Entrance preview.
I had to clear UGC-NET to apply for Ph.D. course at SMVDU. I opted for this place as here I could get a chance to be guided by Prof. Sudhir K. Jain, who was here on a stint as V.C. Otherwise he would only be available at IIT-D and that was out of case for me, given my familial conditions. Moreover this was much more beautiful that many other places that I had been to in quest for admission including many IIMs
Very learning and rigorous. There were three papers with 10 credit points for the coursework. This was followed by a comprehensive exam involving all three subjects and of worth 15 credits. Finally a research proposal had to be submitted and then the formal research work started. Then onward it was review of literature, preparation of questionnaire, data collection, analysis and finally report writing.
Internships opportunities.
Internship experience has been awesome. It offers several avenues for internship to us. It has tie-up with several reputed companies such as TCS, ICICI Bank, Wipro etc. for this purpose.The internship gives us a hands on exposure to apply our theoretical knowledge into real life setting. There are a number of stipend offered to students from students as well as from the alumni.
There are a host of scholarships in our university. I am personally availing JRF/ SRF through UGC since 2012. I also availed BHU Research fellowship for six months in initial period after joining.I was awarded by ICSSR National doctoral fellowship in 2013. Recently, I got a project to work upon related to university waste paper management of around Rs. 10,00,000/-.

Our PhD programme on Innovation, Economics, Governance and Sustainable Development (IEGSD) offers high-quality education, training and supervision to our PhD candidates, leading to a doctoral degree from Maastricht University .
Through our disciplinary and multidisciplinary research, we aim to contribute to the academic debate and to societal policy and innovation solutions at all stages of the policy process, from setting the policy agenda to delivering and evaluating public policy.
In meeting these aims, we ensure that our research maintains the highest standards of academic and scientific excellence and rigour while remaining policy-relevant.
The PhD programme is part of the UNU-MERIT Graduate School and hosts over 100 PhD fellows working on a doctoral dissertation within the core disciplines of UNU-MERIT:
Dual career
Phd positions and programmes at unu-merit.
There are several types of PhD positions within UNU-MERIT, and Maastricht University more broadly, depending on the type of funding (with an employment contract from Maastricht University, through a research grant or fellowship or using other external sources of funding) and the time available for the doctoral research (full-time or part-time, in combination with work responsibilities). See also PhD information from Maastricht University .
Salaried PhD positions at UNU-MERIT are less common, but not excluded, and are mainly recruited by way of externally funded projects. Vacancies are usually only advertised when a professor has obtained an external grant and the topic of the PhD dissertation is more or less fixed. In coordination with the PhD programme director, these fellows can be allowed to participate in one of the PhD programmes in a flexible manner, depending on their time available for PhD research and training needs.
To accommodate the need for a large community of scholars active in the core areas of the institute and the increasingly hybrid type of PhD positions held to conduct the PhD trajectory, the UNU-MERIT PhD programme is composed of two different PhD tracks, each appealing to PhD fellow profiles with different education and supervision needs, funding alternatives and time involvement.
Applications are invited from highly motivated and talented fellows, especially from the Global South, who want to join a thriving and collaborative community of scholars focusing on pressing global challenges, including migration, climate action, digital transformation, poverty and inequality, and particularly their impact on human and economic sustainable development.
